I think I have to disagree with you. Electronic stuffs may be cheap in US but not in Europe. For instance, Germany which is the place I'm currently studying. The laptops here are so darn expensive till enforce me to buy laptop from other country and import it into here. Haiyz ... Anyway, I do recommend to buy Asus G73Jh.

QUOTE(Jeffrey1987 @ May 21 2010, 03:55 PM) In my case, Ken Lee from GenTechPC did not call me to verify. After I have successfully do the transaction, Ken Lee automatically made an order for me. Yea, my order is confirmed already. I even can track the location of my laptop too. As for the customs matters, you have to ask Tek. There is nothing to ask. I have wrote everything down heh. The customs form is just RM18. Another of their "brilliant" idea to get some duit kopi from us. Granted, the customs officer I dealt with that day was pretty nice. I just had to purchase the form, let them chop a few times . . and I am out of the complex. The officer didn't even wanted me to open the box to inspect if i were actually ordering a laptop or semtex or C4 |

I was going to buy Studio XPS 16 this week but I bump into this thread and change my mind instantly
Just wondering on the after ASUS sales support, from what I found it's not that good... just hope the quality is good enough and need not to engage with them This post has been edited by stalkie: May 21 2010, 04:14 PM |

Asus after sales service may not as good as Dell but I personally believe that Asus built quality is above average and of course seldom got hardware problems. Hehehehe ... Oh yea, I'm liking so much the global warranty offered by them which is remarkable.

QUOTE(wyefueng @ May 21 2010, 04:00 PM) goodie! really nice machine!~ Well another reason I went for G73JH is coz I went to one of those big shot shops around sunway to enquire bout their laptops, G51VX-A1 or sum model with I7 and 260 GTX start price RM 7999, I ask bout other spec they say minimum RM 9999. RM 7999 discount max also 7499. i think whatever price you are paying for it now will be cheaper than when it is officially launch here later(IF it will ever happen) Nothing is cheap in bolehland.. ;( So I guess buying the G73 now and later official at Malaysia I estimate the price should be around 8999-9999. This also depends when the official date will be. Warranty also same so I guess not much diff. Altho comparing to the Alienware M15X and M17X their service is top notch as I have a few units of dell. |

QUOTE(tek @ May 21 2010, 02:33 PM) OMG...I thought their customer service was the dumps . . but this is just too much! I don't understand why anyone should ever want to give this company any business from now onwards. Not responding to prospective customer is bad enough, but to renege on delivery time . . what more by 2-3 months is just LOL. thanks for recommending me. naim . . get your money back and order from US resellers or pm corallinkz . . he is giving a good deal at the moment (however, since they have your money now, I have a feeling you're gonna have a terrible time with them in trying to get back that cash. Good Luck) Hope this is a lesson to all. If you don't wanna get burned by this horrible company . . steer clear. i'll open thread soon i guess, when my 1st orders went well. as it should. |

QUOTE(Jeffrey1987 @ May 21 2010, 04:59 PM) using one. somehow i feel the keyboard around the gpu side (right side) gets hot with the silicone cover over the keyboard. maybe this laptop really does have intakes for the fans sumwhere on top? so anyways, now i'm using my silicone cover only on the left side of my keyboard covering the WASD "gaming" keys. Added on May 21, 2010, 5:40 pm QUOTE(EvilDevil118 @ May 21 2010, 05:25 PM) I prolly will get those el cheapo stuff to use, just not sure if those generic silicone is big enough to cover the laptop or not. got mine at sri comp only rm8. long enuff... just measure ur laptop b4 u buy cos they got many sizes.Added on May 21, 2010, 5:42 pm QUOTE(stalkie @ May 21 2010, 03:45 PM) Updated i add myself larh. nickname | model | supplier, country | order date | owned date 1. stalkie | G73JH-A2 | CubeHub, SG | 19 May 2010 | 2.

Thanks for you guys experience. Actually, the main purpose I'm using the keyboard protector is to prevent the dust from entering the gap between the keyboard. I'm kinda dislike to see all the dust covering my keyboard. However, I do concern about the heat dissipation as I have heard someone said that Asus G73Jh has air intakes from the keyboard area?
